Practices For Keeping Your Doors Alive

Certain daily practices can keep your doors well-maintained and clean, increasing your life.

1. Keep Fire Away

The plywood used by CenturyDoors is fire-resistant. However, major accidents can happen anytime. To avoid the same, try not to bring fire-based objects too close to the doors for longer and risk fire spread. For instance, do not use crackers and fireworks near your doors. It can even destroy your fine finishing, paints, designs, laminates or veneers on the doors.

2. Avoid Contact With Sharp Objects

Sharp objects like knives, pins, and nails can destroy the fine finish of your doors. Avoid large objects’ corners from hitting your doors, like furniture, chairs and so on, while shifting. Surface dents can hinder the effects of virokill technology at that point.

3. Do Not Scratch Or Scrape

Children like to play with doors, and often, they might end up leaving scratches. While minor scratches affect the fine touch of your doors, major scratches fiddle with the surface treatments. They can alter the characteristics of your doors and decrease their life.

4. Keep Stubborn Stains Away

Childhood is an important phase of learning and enjoying life. We do not want our children to stop exploring and doing something new. But they end up making drawings and paintings on walls and doors. Keep cleaning your doors and try avoiding permanent sketches, highlights or paints. Stubborn stains like paint or others like grease can stay permanently. The spot on your shiny doors is definitely not what you want!

5. Use Mild Detergents To Clean

If you clean the paint, oil or other stains, make it a habit of using mild detergents. Hard detergents may lead to discolouration of the vibrant colours of the doors. For a safer side, make it a habit to clean stains as soon as they occur. The prolonged stains can be permanent, hard to remove and tempt you to use hard detergents that can harm the quality of your doors.

Tip: It is always better to perform a thorough cleaning periodically. Use a mixture of warm water and mild detergent. Clean not just the door surface but also the frame. At times, it is an unclean frame that prevents a smooth swing.

6. Lubrication and Inspection

Hinges and locks require occasional lubrication. Applying a lubricant specifically designed for doors will ensure that you don’t wake up to the sound of a door creak! Furthermore, regularly inspecting your CenturyDoors for any signs of damage, such as dents and getting them repaired for any minor damage helps prevent it from worsening. If your door starts sticking or does not close properly, it might be an indication that it needs an adjustment. Consult your manufacturer's instructions and seek professional assistance to get your door realigned.
